OPEN RECORDS SUMMARY :

On 11/08/2021, Larimer County deputies attempted to stop a vehicle driven by Richard Lujan and chased it through Fort Collins onto Interstate 25. The driver continued driving at high speed and lost control, causing a crash that seriously injured passenger Timothy Lobato, 20. He later died from his injuries. Prosecutors stated the pursuit began after deputies tried to stop the vehicle for traffic violations and ended with Lujan’s arrest and eventual conviction for charges including manslaughter related to the fatal crash. Court proceedings years later detailed the role of the pursuit and crash in Lobato’s death while deputies’ actions remained part of the investigative record surrounding the incident.
